1 Timothy 1:2

Spending time in God’s Word as a family can help plant seeds of faith . Your children gain insights that will help them in life. But how do you lead your family in God’s Word? This five-day plan includes short (1 to 2 minute) audio segments from people like you. You do not have to be a scholar. These are ideas for all ages that you can use right now .

We live in a land where truth is subjective, individualized, and culturally conditioned. That same troubling thinking had invaded the churches led by Timothy and Titus, so Paul's pastoral letters to them focus on the objective and universal truth revealed in Jesus.

The first of Paul’s three “pastoral epistles,” 1 Timothy focuses on the church as a “pillar and buttress of the truth” (1 Timothy 3:15). In the letter, Paul commands Timothy to “guard the deposit” (1 Timothy 6:20) by combatting false teachers, protecting the flock of Christ, and structuring the church well. 1 Timothy shows us the incredible privilege of being in God’s church and the high calling of leading it.

This plan offers a 6-day journey through the book of 1 Timothy, making it ideal for both individual and group study.
